From tech to talent, businesses are going through an intense period of change, but is enough being done to build strong workplace cultures?

Recent years have seen an exceptional awareness and prioritization of workplace culture by both employers and employees. Culture is a company’s “personality,” including the behavioral expectations, practices, and other norms that influence how people interact both internally and on its behalf.

At the same time, workplace culture is being influenced by disparate factors in significant ways. Demographic shifts, diversity and inclusion initiatives, talent shortages, automation, evolving technology, and an onslaught of data are converging to create both immediate and long-term changes.

If we consider ‘what’s the one thing you could do differently today to help your organization return to a new normal,’ where would you start? With disruption, an everyday reality, changing the company culture to be more agile, risk-tolerant, and experimental is the biggest HR and business opportunity and challenge of the decade. Companies that unlock a winning culture at speed and scale will transform at a pace that leaves their competitors behind.

A 2018 report by HRD connect on Great Places to work predicted three key predictions for the workplace culture of the future which includes

  1. A Fairer Workplace For All Employees
  2. Increased Focus on Developing All Employees
  3. A Deeper Sense of Purpose For All Employees

 

The recent Nasscom – AON study titled Re-imagining Talent Management in Indian Technology Organizations Post COVID-19 released in April 2021 also highlights the change in work realities demand in the way goals are set
